  1. barstool is not at all a reputable reporter on the level of the big guys but its more legit than a wet butt type rumor so my guess is this is happening pretty sure the wetbutt dude had some kind of connection to barstool as they both had the quintana trade the night prior. wetbutt might’ve been barstool’s source. also pretty sure barstoolcarl had a rumor a year or two that was totally super definitely going to happen and it never did. There was even a hard date put on the rumor. I wish I could remember what it was. I’m not sure he’s got sources. Maybe he’s gotten some since then. unrelatedly, i knew barstoolcarl in college.
  2. hold onto your (wet) butts. lots of random twitter chatter in the last few minutes saying Darvish to Cubs.
  3. this question still stands
  4. hahaha. i was just at that bar this weekend. yeah, no connection to the twins guy.
  5. lmao “we secured four of the earlier Chatwoods that were reinforced now”
  6. damn. jakerolled.
  7. isn't the astros rotation already pretty crowded?
  8. Ah, that proper translation makes this second one make more sense, but I wonder what the Dodgers part is? [tweet]https://twitter.com/kazuto_yamazaki/status/942967983592181760[/tweet]

  10. as long as it doesn't take us out of the harper sweepstakes, i really love the idea of addressing the pitching 100% through free agency this offseason and collecting draft picks for both Jake and Davis. especially with a potential frontline guy like Darvish, and even more especially if they buy into the pitch tipping thing and feel it's a pretty easy fix. i'm not against trading from the major league team at some point, but putting the team in a position where they don't need to do this for, hopefully, the next couple of years is really appealing. i'm also pretty worried about Lester going forward, so being in a spot where you're not relying on him quite as heavily is really important. a pitcher like Cobb doesn't accomplish that for me. Darvish clearly does.
  11. Bring the horsefeathering DH to the NL.
  12. got it. thanks everyone.
  13. i'm blanking. what is BAM?
  14. hey now all you sinners put your lights on because carlos santana is going to the phillies nailed it.
  15. if he does what David threw out there for the next two seasons, i could see him opting out after ‘19. But even then I wouldn’t bet on it. After one year of that level of production, no way.
  16. Morrow Cishek Edwards Wilson Montgomery Strop Maples/Alvarez/Tseng/Grimm Looks alright. It'd still be nice to add another piece, but I agree that Davis/Reed look pretty unlikely. I could maybe see a Watson-level signing. More likely, this is what we're rolling with. Maples and/or Wilson stepping up would be excellent.
  17. so this guy seems to fill the same role kintzler would have--heavy groundball pitcher--but with much more swing and miss? i like it.
  18. Oh, I wouldn't at all want him closing, but he's plenty fine as another guy in the mix. Morrow would almost surely get the nod over him at least. And Wilson if he hasn't turned into Rick Ankiel. Every good bullpen needs a guy who can induce a double play. And, as you wrote, he'd play up with the Cubs elite infield defense behind him. Theo and Jed have gone out and got ground ball inducers before to varying degrees of success. Kintzler's track record is better than all those guys. I agree he'd be a good guy to have come out of the pen. I think the pushback was in the idea that if the Cubs signed him it would mean they'd be out on someone like Davis, Holland or Reed. So long as that's not the case, I don't think anyone wouldn't want to have him. Yep, that’s where I’m at. I’m fine with Kintzler, just not as the second best reliever acquired.
  19. oh jeez did this guy replace mooney? i figured he was just some damn cardinals fan.
  20. Ozuna to Cardinals per Jesse Sanchez.
